Bison Queen

Hers, desire verses, stockings well forthcoming

Bonfires canyonize argentite canoes

Rapids of my pulse, time tunnel slumming

All along the riverbank, thirsty for a snooze

Once, the Colorado ran red for hand painters

Arizona took one look at Beefheart

Martyr coat of arrows, would-be woodcut sainters

Piled high like bodies in future burro cart

Lousy limousine, shout out to the maimed

Dead man call her pilot, his bay is unclaimed

Roll the Hopper buckskin, bulbs flash at bear

Here come the Bison Queen

A gift she never needed, damn a broken-down Hoover

Rambling 'round Leadbelly and associates

Diving like a duck drunk, sad furniture movers

Union song for leaving, cry boat drag women Soviets

Lousy limousine, shout out to the maimed

Dead man call her pilot, his bay is unclaimed

All across Dakotas, when Deadwood wasn't there

Here come the Bison Queen

Lousy limousine, shout out to the maimed

Dead man call her pilot, his bay is unclaimed

Lay me down or suit me up, she dares to give us health care

Here come the Bison Queen

Here come the Bison Queen
